A F#m D E
I got some sentimental fingers and they're holding on to you
A Amaj7 D A
I gotta keep that stuff and alcohol yeah keep it there for health
D E
'Cause your right hand feels for money, but your left hand feels for wealth

We were young, we were used to winning, and then the baby came on late
A F#m D E
Mommy got into a strange and cried and she regrets she made
A Amaj7 D A
And there I was just a sober king yeah fakin' it for our friends
D E
Had a local grub of memories when they ran out in the end
[Chorus]
A C#m D
Oh but I think of you and I change
A C#m E
Oh, I think of you, you're all the same
D E A
No one thinks like me these days
D
We had a game, you have learned it
E
We had a name, you have earned it
A C#m D
I am just a thing you had to do
A C#m A
I am just a memory now for you

A Amaj7 F#m E
I am the greatest American dreamer you will ever care to know
A F#m D E
Two eyes but none the wiser and I'm lookin' for a third to grow
A Amaj7 D A
Two houses don't make a home for me they're just a building and some extra walls

She told me softly of immigrants and our numbers were one in ten
A F#m D E
Our majority was losing ground and our nation had turned to sin
A Amaj7 D A
How our neighbors never lived that close and I hid any, now they're gone
D E
Told me how he lost his generation I am the eldest of the middle sons
[Chorus]
A C#m D
Oh but I think of you and I change
A C#m E
Oh, I think of you, you're all the same
D E A
No one thinks like me these days
D
We had a game, you have learned it

We had a name, you have earned it

I am just a thing you had to do
A C#m A
I am just a memory now for you
